I'm reminded of a CA lawsuit against a plastic jerry can company.

The problem was that thanks to these missing "features" it became very popular for fuel use. As soon as the company realized why it sold so well they immediately molded a "not for fuel use" warning on the side. Instant lawsuit. CA said when they added the warning they admitted knowledge of the incorrect use and this made them responsible. Ugh.

I think the thing to do is hang around the car while it cools off.

You cannot be more right about cleaning the plastic 2 years ago I hit a plastic grocery bag with the driver side pipe and it was a pain in the rear to clean. I light of this I will cover the area next to the pipe of the cone with aluminum foil ...oh well.
